Complete repair and minimal repair models with a block maintenance policy are considered. Each of these models gives rise to a counting process, and these processes are compared stochastically. This contrasts with most previous work on maintenance policies where only univariate marginal comparisons were made. Also a more general block schedule is considered than is customary.

Burn-in is a widely used method to improve quality of products after they have been produced. For a repairable component there are two common types of repair, complete repair and minimal repair. Preventive maintenance policies such as age replacement and block replacement are often employed in field operation. The present paper takes burn-in, maintenance and repair into consideration at the same time and considers related cost structures. The properties of the corresponding optimal burn-in times and optimal maintenance policies are discussed.

This paper considers periodic and sequential preventive maintenance (PM) policies for the system with minimal repair at failure: the PM is done (i) at periodic times kx and (ii) at constant intervals xk (k = 1, 2, ···, N). The system has a different failure distribution between PM'S and is replaced at the Nth PM. The optimal policies which minimize the expected cost rates are discussed. The optimal x and N of periodic PM and {xk} of sequential PM are easily computed in a Weibull distribution case.
